I just found this on my bed. It scares me a little. What is it?
You walk into your room, ready to unwind, only to find strange reddish-brown capsules resting on your bed. Your first thought? What on earth is this—and how did it get here? It’s a moment that can trigger instant unease, especially when the objects look unfamiliar and out of place. Are they insect eggs, seeds, or something more concerning? Before jumping to conclusions, it helps to take a calm, investigative approach. Often, mysterious finds like these have simple, harmless explanations—whether it’s a dropped supplement, a stray seed, or a misplaced household item.

I just found this on my bed. It scares me a little. What is it?
Picture this: You walk into your bedroom, ready to relax, when you find strange reddish-brown objects on your bed. You pick them up: small, capsule-shaped, shiny, and unfamiliar. Immediately, you’re overcome with worry. Are they insect eggs? Strange seeds? Medication? Or something more serious?
1. Softgels (dietary supplements or medications).
Their shape and color resemble common softgels, such as those for fish oil, vitamin E, or krill oil. They dissolve easily and can be dropped into the litter box without anyone noticing. If you or someone you know takes supplements, check to see if there are any compatible ones.
2. Seeds.
This is less likely, but some seeds, such as pomegranate or date seeds, can have a smooth, dark appearance. However, they generally have a more fibrous or opaque texture, as opposed to the shiny, gelatinous surface seen here.
3. Insect exuviae or droppings?
This is a common fear: thinking it has something to do with insects. Fortunately, these objects do not resemble insect eggs, larvae, or droppings. Most insect eggs are white or translucent and irregularly shaped. In this case, the objects are too uniform and shiny to be insect organic matter.
4. Candies
or edible beads. Some sweets or culinary decorations may look similar. However, the likelihood of them suddenly appearing in a bed without food is very low.
That’s exactly what happened in the photo above. Three mysterious reddish-brown objects were discovered in a person’s palm after being found on a bed. Let’s look
at some possible explanations for what these objects could be.

What to do?
Check any supplements or medications you have nearby. Look for dropped capsules or opened boxes.
Ask other family members. Someone might have accidentally dropped something.
Don’t take them. Even if they look like vitamins, never ingest an unknown substance.
Clean the bed thoroughly. If you still have doubts, wash the sheets and vacuum the affected area.
